PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT Background and long-term objectives: Children and young adults with diffuse midline glioma (DMG) harboring H3K27M mutation rarely survive longer than two years and have no proven therapies beyond radiation. The dopamine receptor DRD2 antagonist ONC201 induces transcription of TNF-related apoptosis- inducing ligand (TRAIL), leading to apoptosis in multiple tumor cell types. ONC201 additionally binds and activates the mitochondrial protease ClpP, resulting in mitochondrial-mediated cell death in breast cancer cells with active oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). ONC201 is in early phase use in H3K27M-DMG, but its mechanism and efficacy remains unknown. In our preliminary data, ONC201 is effective in murine H3 K27M- mutant gliomas. In our unpublished clinical data (n=50 H3K27M patients), ONC201 doubles PFS and overall survival (OS) in some clinical sub-groups (e.g. thalamic H3K27M) with multiple sustained responses. Despite this impressive efficacy in H3K27M-DMG, we do not know how ONC201 works in H3K27M-DMG tumor cells or how to improve responses in resistant tumors. In analysis of tumor sequencing, ONC201 resistance correlates with high expression of EGFR and the brain developmental transcription factor FOXG1. FOXG1 expression is also the strongest negative predictor of ONC201 sensitivity in human glioma cell lines. In order to prioritize which patients should be treated with ONC201 and to generate rationale combination therapies, there is a critical need to elucidate the mechanism of ONC201 sensitivity in H3K27M cells. Our central hypothesis is that ONC201 is effective in H3K27M-DMG tumors with active OXPHOS through targeting of ClpP and that EGFR signaling mediates ONC201 resistance by inactivating OXPHOS via FOXG1. This is based on our preliminary data in K27M-DMG cells, which shows that cells cultured in media that promotes OXPHOS have an improved response to ONC201, and (iii) EGFR knockdown reduces FOXG1 genomic binding and improves ONC201 response. Approach: In Specific Aim 1, we will determine the impact of: (i) ClpP mitochondrial targeting vs. DRD2 antagonism and (ii) glycolysis vs OXPHOS, in the sensitivity of H3K27M-DMG cells to ONC201. In Specific Aim 2, we will determine the role of FOXG1 in H3K27M-DMG bioenergetics. In Specific Aim 3, we will determine the ability of EGFR inhibition to impact ONC201-induced mitochondrial stress in H3K27M-DMG and for baseline EGFR/FOXG1 tumor staining to predict ONC201 response. We expect to define the mechanism by which EGFR and FOXG1 impact mitochondrial bioenergetics and ONC201 sensitivity in H3K27M-DMG tumors. Significance: This contribution is expected to be significant because it will allow clinicians to prioritize which H3K27M-DMG patients should be treated with ONC201 and provide a platform for rationale combinatorial treatments to improve ONC201 resistance. Our translational team will soon open a multi-site international platform trial that can implement the results of this proposal immediately for patients with H3K27M-DMG.
